Crushed Biscuit and Coffee Dreams



Crushed Biscuit and Coffee Dreams

YHC rolled up early McKee to get a lay of the land.  I had only posted once at the Matrix and had been a few months.  I parked my car where they met last time and headed around with a few ideas.  With no rain in a few days (assuming dry grounds) and my bearings, I felt good about the plan so headed back to the car and waited.  Started getting a bit concerned that no one was coming, but after a late night that concern quickly turned into thoughts of coffee and biscuits.  By 5:32 I was in the car, figuring I would give it until 5:40 just to be sure.  About that time 7 others emerged from behind the bushes wondering where I was.  I was in the wrong lot, distracted, embarrassed and half asleep, but we gave it a go.  Temps were perfect, beautiful fall morning.

COP

Ran to the lot behind the fields for COP.

Low Slow Squat x 15 IC

Mountain Climber x 15 IC

The Thang:

Mosey up to the rock pile to grab a non-running but moving rock and headed to the field.  We were to Paula Abdul around the soccer field, two sides forward, one side back.  First side forward was holding rock overhead, at the corner 10 tricep extensions, 10 overhead press, 10 curls.  Drop the rock and run the next side with 20 merkins at the next corner.  Run back 1 side for your rock and repeat around the field.  With more planned for the field but the complaint jar filled with wet shoe comments, we put the rocks back and headed for dryer ground.  YHC hates wet shoes as much as anyone so I’ll apologize for that one, and feel sorry for the kids that have to play soccer there.

Mosey to the side of the school facing the playground.  Format was 10 of called exercises at wall and 10 at playground.

  1. Jumpsquats and Pull ups
  2. Squats and Dips
  3. Balls to Wall x 5 and Derkins

Time for some Mary, so figured I would mix it up and knock it out in a grinder to give the abs a rest in between.  McGee was not a fan, but coming from the guy that at one point was planning a 45 minute COP mary workout, I took it in stride.

  1. LBC and Flutter
  2. American Hammer and Heels to Heaven
  3. Over/Under and Box Cutter

Ran 2 sets of suicides down the driveway beside the soccer fields using the light poles and 30 seconds of burpees ended things.

Blood Drive this Friday, see Slack for details.

Moleskin:

Always good to mix things up and get out and see new sites, but obviously should have done more pre-work on this one, not my best work not knowing the territory.  The weinke was scrapped pretty early in this one with the wet field, although I guess at one point I thought it wasn’t going to happen at all.  We made due with what we found and the pax weren’t too punishing.  At least all our shoes got wet together?  Not so much.  But some strong work out there by all.  I’m committed to be back out, great site to keep going, thanks for having me.
